I'm looking for a sponsor for playmidi. I've fixed some of the reported bugs and applied an extra patch or two of my own. The diff and dsc files aren't available for download but I'll send them to anybody who's interested in sponsorship.
I've also considered splitting the package (ref. bug 28471), but I'm not sure that the hassle of doing this is worth the gain wrt dependencies: the main problem is in moving ownership of the debconf configuration data to another package. There's some pre-debconf-handling cruft there too which I'm cautious about removing because it postdates potato - or would it be better to just forget that question and ask afresh? -- | Darren Salt | linux (or ds) at | nr.
